Mali: Militants attack police school near airport — army
Tuesday, 17 September 2024 () Mali's army said militants attacked a military police school near Bamako's international airport. While Mali has been grappling with an insurgency since 2012, it is rare for militants to attack the capital.
A recent terror attack in Mali, allegedly supported by Ukrainian intelligence, has sparked a diplomatic crisis in Africa. Mali and Niger severed ties with Ukraine, while other West African nations condemned the action. Ukraine denies involvement, but faces accusations of supporting terrorism. The incident has strained relations between Ukraine and several African countries, with Russia accusing Ukraine of destabilizing its African allies.
